[Bcoel] Access Copyright and York, request for webinar participation

Hi BCOEL! I am wondering if any of you would be interested in participating in a webinar (hosted by BCcampus) to discuss the background, implications, ruling of the following Access Copyright vs. York case. For background: York University opted out of the Access Copyright agreement a few years ago and decided to try to police it on their own within their university and push the new fair use clause of the Canadian Copyright act. Access Copyright sued them and appears they have won the case. [ http://www.michaelgeist.ca/2017/07/ignoring-supreme-court-trial-judge-hands… | Ignoring the Supreme Court: Federal Court Judge Hands Access Copyright Fair Dealing Victory - Michael Geist ] Let me know if you are interested and available and we can set something up for next week or the week after. I think this important for us to talk about to our community.
